Hi Maria, I think you want something like this: A[keyword[contains(string(text()),"New York")]] Or actually you don't really need to explictly convert the text node to a string so you can just write: A/keyword[contains(text(),"New York")] Also a document can have only one root element so instead of this: $doc/A/keyword[contains(text(),"New York")] you probably want something like this: $doc/ROOT/X/Y/Z/A/keyword[contains(text(),"New York")] Hope this helps, Colin

Thank you. I ended up using: A[keyword[contains(text(),"New York")]] because I wanted to filter te "A". I appreciate your help. Thank you, Maria

Try $doc/A[tokenize(keyword, '|')="New York"] By the way, XSLT coding questions are better asked on the xsl-list at mulberrytech.com, if there is nothing specific to the Saxon product. Michael Kay Saxonica Limited
